Computer Setup

How do the temps go now that there is no side panel ventilation? I've always wanted to try this with my case but I assumed it would almost become like an oven.

I have enough fans that the temps haven't changed. A 200mm intake on the front, a 120mm intake on the bottom, and then my heat sink has both a push and pull (both 120mm), then a 120mm exhaust out the rear, and a 200mm out the top. My idle temps seem even a degree or two lower on average (maybe the air flow is regulated better without the big opening in the side?).
